So Borderlands 2 is right around the corner, being released on Tuesday, and I know there's a lot of hype from people within this community.  I wanted to gather interest from folks, in the hopes of formulating my own team of co-op players, and I figure I might as well take the initiative to allow others to find like-minded players to play with.

For those un-aware of the classes in Borderlands 2, I've taken the time to make it easy for everyone to do their own research:

Gunzerker

---

Quote from: http://www.ign.com/wikis/borderlands-2/Gunzerker?objectid=94190The Gunzerker is the first character in Borderlands ever to be a native of Pandora.The Gunzerker is unique in Borderlands 2 in that he can simultaneously fire two different weapons. Rocket launcher and sub-machine gun? Sniper rifle and shotgun? By activating his Action Skill he can put one weapon in each hand for a limited time and unload on enemies. Weapons including rocket launchers or any type of gun.By investing points in his skill tree as he levels, you can upgrade the Action Skill to offer special combat bonuses and lengthen its duration.

Assassin

Quote from: http://www.ign.com/wikis/borderlands-2/Assassin?objectid=94190The Assassin class is particularly skilled at obliterating enemies. It can be specialized to do high burst damage on single targets rather than area of effect damage. It's possible to gain huge bonuses to a critical hit's impact by awarding points to specific skills as you level up. This works well with the Assassin's action skill.

Siren

Quote from: http://www.ign.com/wikis/borderlands-2/Siren?objectid=94190Maya does not share the Phasewalking skill of Lilith the Siren from the original Borderlands. Instead, she is capable of Phaselocking enemies. By using this action skill, she suspends enemies in midair, knocking them temporarily out of a fight. Depending on how you invest in her skill trees, shooting a Phaselocked enemy can give health back or increase critical hit bonuses. Maya has skill builds that make her more effective at crowd control and healing, but can also do a significant amount of direct damage if specced correctly.

Commando

Quote from: http://www.ign.com/wikis/borderlands-2/Commando?objectid=94190Much like the Soldier from the original Borderlands, the Commando can drop a turret to the ground during a fight. The turret serves a wide variety of functions, including direct damage attacks. The turret is meant to be much more modifiable than the Soldier's turret, and its visual appearance will change depending on the types of upgrades made through the skill tree.
You can find out more about the Commando in IGN's Meet the Commando preview.

Mechromancer

---

Quote from: http://www.ign.com/wikis/borderlands-2/Mechromancer?objectid=94190During PAX East 2012, Gearbox Software revealed a new class for Borderlands 2. Named Gaige, the Mechromancer is a gadget-savvy mix between human and machine.
Her action skill is deploying a giant killer robot named Death Trap. Death Trap can act as a tank, drawing enemy fire away from Gaige, or a utility robot, supplying the Mechromancer and her comrades with ammo and supplies.

Gaige the Mechromancer will be available for download on October 16 for free to those who pre-order the game, or $9.99 and ?7.99 on the Playstation store and 800 Microsoft points on the Xbox Live store for those who don't.

As far as me, I'll be playing on PC, likely the Siren.  I'd like to see if I can get a full 4-man co-op going on Teamspeak.  Who else is playing on PC come Tuesday?

Again, for others who aren't playing PC, or want to organize their own groups of players, feel free to coordinate.

I'll be getting it on PC but, alas, I live in Australia, so no can do on the team joining.

I'll be getting it on xbox360 can not wait.

PC if all goes according to plan.

pc all the way man

Playing it on PC, got the ULCE all locked down, woo!

Also, my new GPU is arriving on Monday, so I'm all set for a full day of gaming - so pumped for this release.

And then Torchlight 2 comes out only two days later. Woo.

By the looks of things, an Assassin. I was always a Hunter in the original. And all went according to plan. Borderlands 2 code is in the mail along with my gtx670, for free I might add.  So if anyone needs a new GPU and wants Borderlands 2, good time to buy. I also work this Tuesday unfortunately.

Launch Trailer!

So I pre-ordered through steam
"Game unlocks 19th September"
"Game unlocks in 1 day 21 hours"
WHERE THE HELL IN THE WORLD
IS GONNA BE 19TH SEPTEMBER
IN 2 DAYS

Edit: That trailer looks pretty rad, though it's purely cinematic.
Can't wait for this!

Edit2:

...
I'M SICK OF YOUR CRAP, STEAM
Edit3: new picture. Also feel like a butt for mixing up my dates. That's still a whole day overdue though. Damn it steam, stop being a butt.

Worth.
Every.
Dollar.

it just came in the mail today and this game kicks so much ass  ;D

I am most pleased with the Yu-Gi-Oh reference inside the game.
